That thing is pushing it a bit to be classified as a bicycle...oh, I get that they are, technically, adhering to electric bike laws, but still...

One thing with the electric bike laws, vs a limited-speed motorcycle law....there's no weight restriction on the bikes, whereas there's a 95kg limit on the limited speed motorcycle. Wanna bet this velo weighs more than that?

Honestly, this is pretty close to something I'd wanna drive, just I'd want it to go 50k/hr+ to get me to work in a reasonable amount of time.
